“Little Yanzi, under these circumstances, even if we run to the end of the world, they will trace to kill us. And Zhou Tie won’t accept the result that you run with me.’

After those words, Li Mu looked as if he had been in a dilemma.

Shan Tingyan knocked her fists on Li Mu and cheerfully complained, “Isn’t that your mistake? If you had left earlier, He Quan wouldn’t have been killed. Can’t you just accept his humiliation?”

“How to accept? He rode on my shoulder and sh*tted in my mouth. How can I accept those? Otherwise, it was not that I didn’t want to leave. But it was that the f**king fat person stopped me on purpose. I was stuck!”

“You must accept. Don’t you know it’s Zhou Tie’s conspiracy? He seduced you on purpose. With any action, you will be in his trap. Moreover, you had killed He Quan.”

Li Mu shook his head with a bitter smile.

“Little Yanzi, you know it’s a conspiracy. Even if I accepted all these without dignity, they still had a plan B. All those plans will only lead to the same end.”

Shan Tingyan knew that was true. Zhou Tie couldn’t end with his acceptance. Plans went with plans. Li Mu would hardly leave the temple alive.

“What kind of person is Zhou Tie?” Li Mu thought about his foe. He couldn’t fight with Zhou Tie without any knowledge of him.

Shan Tingyan snorted and said contemptuously, “He is an irony b*st*rd as brutal as a cobra. He seems friendly and gallant but is actually totally cunning. After he crowded you out, you spent every day in the temple desperately. In the end, you couldn’t bear those and then provoked him.”

Li Mu was startled, “Did I hear something wrong? I fought with him. Was I crazy? Why didn’t you stop me?”

“Who tells you that I didn’t stop you? I stopped you by any ways I could think of. But you totally ignored my suggestion. I knew you have your dignity, so...”

“So I fought with him and was beaten badly. The result of my defeat was that I must leave the temple. Am I right?”

Shan Tingyan nodded, gazed at Li Mu proudly, “I always think my Brother Mu won his dignity and respect in the fight. My loved man was an indomitable and masculine hero.”

“Which helps little. We still hide here and there like wild dogs. How could I look like a masculine man?”

Shan Tingyan was startled and asked Li Mu puzzledly, “Brother Mu, what are you talking about?”

Li Mu mocked himself with bitterness.

“What I said was true. He has greater power than me. Fighting with him impulsively is stupid but not brave. If I could choose again, I won’t do it recklessly.”

“What would you do?”

“It’s easy. Plan A, take you to leave here secretly and end all the relationship with the Temple. And then he can do nothing with me. Plan B, play tricks with him. Once he died, we don’t have troubles.”

Shan Tingyan gazed at him with her mouth arching. But Li Mu just smiled shyly.

“Actually, I prefer Plan B. Now the world is a mess. It’s easy to play tricks with someone. Even if he has marvelous powers, he can’t avoid the hidden attacks.”

“Brother Mu, what happened to you? You won’t do these things before.”

“This is the real me. I never lack the reckless impulse. He Quan’s death proved that. But I hardly do that. Unless I have no other ways, I won’t just fight with my foes desperately with strength.”

Shan Tingyan felt totally unfamiliar with Li Mu. She straightened her back and gazed at Li Mu without a blink.

Li Mu laughed and asked, “Am I disappointing you? Am I unfamiliar? Have your hero disappeared?”

“Such an idiot!” Shan Tingyan snapped and then punched Li Mu slightly.

“You idiot. If you could figure these out earlier, how can we be stuck in such a dilemma?”

The more Shan Tingyan said, the angrier she became. And then she pinched Li Mu with grievances.

“You even want to maintain your master’s life to his death. His son framed you trickily. And your master always has a strong bias toward his son no matter his son is right or wrong. Your relationship with your master totally broke in early time. He never deserves your cares and worries.”

Li Mu hold Shan Tingyan’s wrists and looked at her stunned.

“Was I that stupid?”

“Stupid and stubborn. You really deserved those tricks.” Then Shan Tingyan pouted and looked at Li Mu angrily.

“So his tricks were reasonable. I was stupid and stubborn and always silly to care and worry about my master. I deserve this!”

Li Mu scratched his head and dragged the words to the topic.

“Little Yanzi, where do you want to go? Do you have any idea?”

“I plan to go to the northern place. With the coldest weather, the vast land, and few people, we can live there in seclusion and never care about other things about the world.”

“No, this is a dead way. We will be found by people of the Temple sooner or later.” Li Mu disapproved of her idea. He didn’t mean to play fun with her. He had his idea.

“Little Yanzi, any place you can think about, Zhou Tie can think about too. We can’t hide there for all of our life. That’s not a good idea.”

“Then we can leave for other distant places. There is such a vast territory in the country. People of the Temple can’t search everywhere. If we act carefully, they can’t find us.”

“Why must we leave for distant places? Have you heard a saying that nobody faints in the wilderness but somebody faints in the throng?”

Shan Tingyan nodded.

“I know the saying. But we did our spiritual practice in the temple since we were born. Without any knowledge of city life, I don’t know whether we will live so hard in a city with crowds.”

“But you have me. And let me tell you, I learned many living skills in my dream. Now I’m more familiar with the city’s life. Follow me. I can assure you that we will live a better life.”

Shan Tingyan hesitated to decide to go with Li Mu.

Li Mu explained with patience, “You can figure out the reason. Zhou Tie’s attention must focus on the place you mentioned. But we take the opposite way and hide in the city out of his surprise. That’s my plan.”

“Can’t he think about this? He is cunning with many tricks. He can guess that we hide in the city.”

“So what? Do you know how many cities are there in the country? And do you know how many people are there in a metropolis? He wants to find us just like finding a needle in an ocean. It can’t be possible.”

Shan Tingyan was persuaded and Li Mu continued to eliminate her hesitation, “Little Yanzi, hiding is not a long-term way but the capability to maintain our lives is. If we have marvelous power, dare Zhou to play tricks with us?”

Noticing Shan Tingyan’s acceptance, Li Mu didn’t stop, “The distant place has harsh environment. It’s hard for us to develop our own power. But the city is different. With fluent resources, crowds of people and our capability, it’s possible for us to struggle for a bright future.”

Shan Tingyan thought for a while and nodded slowly, “Brother Mu, you are reasonable. Where do you want to go?”

Li Mu shrugged with his hands upwards. He answered with embarrassment, “Honestly, I don’t know where to go. The same as you, I know little about the world. But I have a suggestion.”

“Huh, what suggestion?’

“We don’t need to travel far away. After disguising, we can find a close metropolis to live in secretly. Even though Zhou Tie is super smart, he can’t imagine that. This is called the dark under the light.”

Shan Tingyan’s eyes glowed and clapped for the suggestion, “Wise as you, Brother Mu. Zhou Tie can never think that we dare to hide under his control. Okay, we just hide in the throng nearby.”

The reality surely went as Li Mu guessed. Two of them lived secretly in a city. Life was serene with no disturbs.

Shan Tingyan felt happy to live with her loved man. It met all her satisfaction.

Unlike her, Li Mu felt less tranquility as time went by.

He knew that he couldn’t indulge himself in the warmth and tenderness. Once he got used to this life, he would get used to not struggling for a better life and would never keep sober.

Later, he would be mixing the dream with reality. Finally, he would end his life in the heart realms.

Until now, he didn’t find the related heart realm. In the seven heart realms, they figured out the Realm of Worry. There left six heart realms were happiness, anger, thinking, sadness, fear, and fright.

It couldn’t be the Realm of Happiness. After all, running for all his life wasn’t happy. But the other five heart realms of anger, thinking, sadness, fear, and fright were all possible. And the heart realms of anger, sadness, and fear were greatly possible.

Angry for the bully from the people of the Temple. Sadness for being abandoned by the Temple. Fear for being caught up. These three heart realms could be explained reasonably. And the three feelings related to three heart realms.

But which heart realm was he actually in? Li Mu knew that the reason he was stuck here was his awareness.

It was the saying that it could either make you or broke you. The awareness made him keep sober in any situation, which meant he couldn’t feel the mood of his role.

Though the name of the humiliated person was Li Mu too. But that humiliated guy wasn’t him. Li Mu was the real Li Mu, not any others. He couldn’t touch the feeling of that humiliated Li Mu.

After all, he could just know the pieces of information about that humiliated Li Mu from Shan Tingyan’s words, which lacked details and the real Li Mu could hardly get the humiliated Li Mu’s feeling. In the real Li Mu’s mind, these pieces were just stories that couldn’t strike a chord.

Those worries almost dyed Little Brother Li’s hair white. After a long thought and contemplation, Li Mu decided that he preferred to break down the problem than to wait for a conclusion.

And he thought about a way to solve all the problems. Since all the traces led to Qingyang Temple and were related to Zhou Tie, Li Mu could directly start from Qingyang Temple. After dealing with his foe, he should have figured out this heart realm.

If it was the anger for the humiliation from the people of the temple, killing the foe could peace the anger.

If it was the sadness for being abandoned by the temple, killing the family of the foe could release the sadness.

If it was the fear for being caught, after killing the bad guys, the role of Li Mu would fear nothing.

Clearly, after Little Brother Li changed his hone, his fatal energy grew much heavier. Though he killed the evil spirits, the fatal energy wouldn’t totally disappear.

Anyway, this was not the real world. The act of killing some false roles wouldn’t cause his mental burden. He didn’t have too much time to notice the difference between reality and falsehood. Getting out here was the only matter that he needed to consider.

Doing the killing must be approved by Shan Tingyan. Even if she wouldn’t agree, she couldn’t be Li Mu’s obstacle. Li Mu didn’t want to do anything to Shan Tingyan because of this.
